A month or two ago Boots had a massive offer one with many items costing just £1, this was a cross ranges such as Lynx, Original Source and many more, however, one of the ranges was 'Dove' and their body washes. There body washes were normally priced between £1.50 and £2, so I picked up a few to stock up, not to mention I also had a 1/3 off body gels / washes voucher - bargain! ;)

These can also be purchased in the likes of Superdrug, Tesco, Sainsburys and most other big chain supermarkets, however, I have also seen them in some corner stores but for considerably more.

The bottle itself is obviously Dove, due to the shape and style, this particular one is pinky / red in colour with a photo of a very appealing pomegramate on it.

The shower gel itself is a lovely, thick consistency which looks ever so slightly pink in colour. Though the first thing I noticed with the lovely scent. It was very fresh, hence the name 'Go Fresh' and was light fragrance that was very fruity, yet had undertones of sweet tones. I am not sure whether I could have picked out the smell of a pomegramate, as shown on the front, however it had a definite sweet, fruity smell.

To use it worked up a good lather and felt ever so soft and creamy on the skin. Unlike gels that can sometimes be harsh and not work up a good lather, this worked up a thick, creamy lather that felt really luxurious.

After using this my skin was noticably smoother and felt so much more hydrated. I also noticed that the scent lingered slightly, which I was very pleased with as it really is a lovely smell!

Overall I would reccomend this item as it works up a good lather, is soft to the skin and you can really feel it cleaning. I would still buy at full price, however, if you can pick it up at a price of around 66p like I did then it's a bargain to be had!

Rate a review "exceptional" if it gives readers outstanding advice for making a good buying decision

The review covers all aspects of the product and its user-friendliness which would be relevant to making a product choice. All remarks are founded on evidence from personal experience and the author remains objective throughout. A reader could find sufficient information here to base his/her purchase decision on this review alone.

Rate a review "very helpful" if it clearly supports others in making a good buying decision

The review covers a wide range of product features and the author's position is clearly-explained, well-structured and founded, for the most part, on solid evidence. This review would be of great use to somebody making a product choice, but would have to be used in conjunction with other information sources.

Rate a review "not helpful" if it gives inaccurate, offensive and useless information.

The review is not a helpful decision-making aid. The information it provides is subjective and lacks foundation. Perhaps the content contains comments which do not relate to the product and may be offensive to other members.

Rate a review "off topic" if it has been posted in the wrong place and/or does not discuss the product.

Reviews relating to products in other categories, or those which stray onto unrelated subjects should be rated "off topic". This will let other readers know that they need not read the review when seeking information that would be useful in a purchase decision.
